Even foreign newspapers disappoint

The Phillipine Star is the next mainstream newsapaper to go gushy about Identity Crisis, showing that even newspapers from foreign countries, sadly, can be just as fluff-coated as the ones stateside. And I think the following line here indicates just how badly confused the writer of this article is, or how much he's blowing it:
Unlike in my father’s comic books, things are no longer distinct. I’m no longer sure if I want the heroes to succeed. The villains are still reprehensible, but I am no longer certain if they deserve their comeuppance.
It's a real shame when someone just buys into all the propaganda clogging up IC as badly as the reporter who wrote this article does. But this is what seems to be the case.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
